The Stafford London

The Stafford has maintained its high standards as in our past stays and is how we measure other hotels on our travels. The staff are friendly, welcoming, helpful and attentive. The location is quiet and excellent for walking to London sights, restaurants and museums. Room amenities are of very good quality. Our meals (breakfast and at the American Bar) were very good. This is the only place we will stay when in London.

This is our favorite hotel in London. In a great location. Convenient to everything! The rooms are wonderful. Great bathroom and so clean! Staff is amazing. The American Bar is so nice. We love it. Coming back in December for daughters wedding. We always stay here when visiting our daughter.

I have nothing but great things to say about The Stafford. This was my second time staying here and it was wonderful service on both occasions. They even gave us a complimentary room upgrade to a suite. The bathroom was large with heated floors. The suite was specious and had a lot of character. The staff were very kind and made sure we had everything we needed (and more). I would highly recommend staying at this establishment! Especially if you would like to be close to the Parks and Buckingham Palace. There is also nearby public transportation at Green Park, which was very convenient. Of note, other things we enjoyed here: -Daily breakfast -American Bar -The room service was great, many selections were available to us We cannot thank you enough for your hospitality!

We were recommended to stay at this hotel by an English friend and we couldn’t have been happier! The location was walk to just about anywhere we wanted to go and the service was exemplary. They bent over backwards for us and made us feel so welcome every time we came back from our day out. A truly English experience. I would go back in a heartbeat!!

My wife and I stayed at The Stafford London (room 322) as part of our 40th anniversary European tour from the U.S. The hotel came highly recommended by our travel agent and it exceeded our expectations in every possible way. It’s tucked away on a side street in the very fashionable Mayfair area, so it’s extremely quiet and secluded, yet close to everything you would ever want to see in London. The staff could not be nicer, and treated us like we had been there many times before, despite it being our first visit. The concierge, Alan, in addition to be being a fellow Arsenal fan, was phenomenal at offering helpful hints and advice. The valet, Sergio from Ukraine, and our housekeeper from Lithuania could not have been nicer people, along with PK, the maitre-d’hotel in their five-star restaurant. Personally, I don’t think you’ll find a better hotel experience within the heart of London! (Tip: ask for a tour of their 400 year old wine cellar).

I could find no fault with this hotel from the reception staff , housekeeping staff, bar and restaurant staff. |We have stayed several times over the past ten years, and it now feels like going home. |Total luxury , without the glitz . So tastefully decorated.

The Stafford was truly a 5 star Hotel.. It was beautiful beginning with the Lobby, dining area, and rooms.. all the way to the bathrooms with $5000 Toto Japanese toilets. The service at the front desk and the dining room was perfect, friendly and did whatever you asked of them . I would absolutely come back to this hotel.

The Stafford is a very well run hotel and is justifiably quite popular. Our recent stay of twelve days gave us many opportunities to interact with the staff and use hotel services. Responses to our requests were consistently prompt, courteous and competent. We also enjoyed The Game Bird restaurant and the ever popular American Bar.

The service was exquisite, the presentation beautifully done. This was my first afternoon tea and enjoyed it. I was not however expecting everything to be so sweet. Some items were too sweet to eat in my opinion.

Had afternoon tea in 2023. It was nice and the setting pretty. Somewhat ruined by loud 50-60 year olds talking right next to my table when no one else was there. Staff is not trained well enough to create a pleasant environment sadly. The tea itself was very nice and they offer gluten free options. They did make a mistake by not providing two portions but since Im not celiac it was ok. The only problem was the somewhat ungracious way the server insisted I made a mistake. For afternoon tea at the Staffords I would expect polite service and well mannered staff.

Simply an incredible experience. We would return in a heartbeat. After a 12 day vacation, The Stafford made it hard to leave. Thank you! Bobby and Jennifer

The Good: This hotel is not only centrally located but the rooms are HUGE and quiet. Finding all three of these characteristics at a London hotel is not easy. Breakfast was included in our rate (Amex FHR property) and I still remember how fresh and delicious the eggs and English muffin were. The Bad: I really can't think of anything except that while we were staying here the hotel was being renovated and thus was operating on a sort of temporary basis. Still, the staff did everything they could to be welcoming and accommodating. Bottom Line: I haven't found a better hotel in London for the price yet. My search continues...

There are alot of beautiful hotels. The Stafford has to be one of the most beautiful I have even seen. I stumbled across it during my first trip to London 9 years ago. I fell in love with it instantly. At the time I was poor (relatively speaking), yet determined to stay there even if just for a night. It came as no suprise that the weather was foul. I've been to London four times. Its never been nice. I had left all of my things at the youth hostel and decided that I wasn't going to get on the tube and then walk an additional 5-10 blocks to grab my toothbrush and a change of clothes. Grateful that I had worn several layers (scarf, peacoat, sweater, tank top) and had brought my book I enterred The Stafford not knowing what to expect. I didnt touch my book until 2 days later. At the front desk I was told all of the rooms are "different." I love "different," "diverse", "unique" and any synonym thereof. The man whose name I don't remember and maybe he never told me at all, offered to have a staff person show me a few of the rooms before I settled into one. A few, became 10-12 and I reveled at the color schemes, textures and general charm and style of each of them. I spent that entire day in the hotel- the bar- my bathtub- the carriage house- the wine cellar- I sort of crashed a wedding- and I even spent sometime lying on the plush carpetting (not what you think!) I'm certain I dream of The Stafford from time to time. It will always be one of my very favorite places to stay.

After staying in a number of London Hotels, my family and I have been staying here ever since. My mom has been coming to London since the 1960s and she will not stay anywhere else. We have been staying at this hotel for years-- the service is impecable, the rooms are beautiful, the restaurant and bar are jewels, and the bathrooms are outstanding in every room. Each room is different and unique and there are no "bad" rooms. If you want a lovely hotel in a fantastic central location where you can walk to everything, look no further.

This really is a lovely hotel. It almost has a bed and breakfast feel. We had a large party with 8 rooms. There was a bit of confusion with our check-in, giving things a rough start. The staff wanted to know who was going to be in each room. After 12 hours of traveling and 8 hours of sightseeing, we were exhausted and not in much of a mood to do that. But it was all uphill from there. They have old fashioned keys to get into the rooms. I don't remember the last time I've seen those. Each room is a little different, though beautiful. Our room was very modern, some were more classic. It was neat comparing each one. There was also a little rubber ducky in the bathtubs. The beds were comfortable and they had an american plug in each room, which was so convenient. The staff were friendly and helpful. The only warning is that if you ask them for a recommendation for a moderately priced restaurant they will likely send you somewhere expensive by American standards because you are staying there, haha. We had a wonderful experience at the hotel and overall, I would definitely recommend the Stafford.

Oh boy I felt the world's hottest prime minister when I stayed here. I first heard about it on the Travel Channel and was quickly drawn to it. This is considered a high end hotel which is only good if more than 3 family members are booking a stay. The accommodations here are the best you will ever see on vacation if you are waiting for a flight date or getting of Euro Star. Beds here are really comfortable and a good night sleep is guaranteed. Rooms are bigger than an American hotel and feels quintessentially local like the 1900s. It's pretty exquisitehence it's name. You can get easy access to all sorts of transport here and they will even call your taxi over. Just don't forget to tip your door man. From the hotel you can take the Tube too. The tube can get you to Piccadilly Circus or a bus to Trafalgar Square. If you want a taste of London this is your hotel to stay at. I personally like the afternoon traditional tea. It's a good time to feel laid back. They even provide you a sweet calling card that makes you feel good "my residence while in London". Come for all occasions if your family is backing your trip or is with you.

Outstanding on every level. Beautiful, friendly accommodating staff. Amazing decor! Delicious food! Enchanting traditional British experience!!!

My mom and I stayed at the Stafford in October 2013 and had an absolutely marvelous time! We used hotel points so it was actually pretty reasonable. The staff was absolutely lovely and so helpful! We loved our room and enjoyed drinks at the bar downstairs each night. The location is great! There are some wonderful eateries nearby and the park and hop-on-hop-off is ridiculously close. We stayed at the airport hotel the night before our flight and as we waited for our cab to leave the Stafford, I almost shed a tear when they brought us tea while we waited. It felt very wrong to be going home! We WILL be staying at the Stafford again!! My advice? Don't overpack... it won't really fit in the room :)

Best hotel I have ever stayed in -- I felt very at home and I did not want to leave. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. I am not The Stafford Hotel made me feel very comfortable and welcomed, like I belonged there and they wanted me to be there. My expectations were exceeded and surpassed (and I have very high expectations for hotels). The Stafford Hotel is one of the reasons why I am looking to work in London. With their amazing recommendations for restaurants and events, I fell in love. The location is also prime; just a walk from the buckingham palace and amazing park walks. this Hotel is a MUST! I have already booked to stay again in 2 months.
